Publisher's Synopsis
Based on a real-life artifact, found in the desolate expanse near Haskell, Texas, this adrenaline-fuelled adventure, in the tradition of Dan Brown and Steve Berry, promises a riveting ride from an exciting new voice in the genre.
The Serpent Code is a heart-pounding international thriller.
Dr. Briel Payce is thrust into a perilous quest to uncover the unsettling secrets that connect Mexico's Feathered Serpent God, Quetzalcoatl, with Texas's Spider Rock.
When the Spider Rock vanished under mysterious circumstances in 1909, it left behind a legacy of intrigue and legend-and its weblike pattern and puzzling glyphs ensnare treasure hunters to this day.
Five years after her best friend Percy Gilbert's disappearance in Mexico, Briel Payce receives a cryptic video, igniting her conviction that Percy dug up something far more perilous than the Spider Rock.
Teaming up with the intrepid Dean Leggatt, they trace a series of puzzles Percy left them through Mexico City, only to discover they're not alone.
As the stakes escalate, Briel races against time to unveil the truth concealed within the Spider Rock, knowing that her very survival hinges on her success. In a relentless chase, alliances blur, and adversaries masquerade as allies, leaving Briel in a treacherous maze, where trust is a fleeting illusion. Will she expose the elusive secret or be consumed by the shadows that guard it?
The Serpent Code is a mind-bending odyssey where every step brings Briel closer to revelation, and nearer to the abyss.
